Oliver Sacks: His Own Life (Kanopy)

I recommended The Man who Mistook his Wife for a Hat to Tara and she recently asked if she could borrow my copy but I couldn’t find it amongst my piles and stacks of books stored at my mom’s. I was hoping it was with my textbooks (most of which I should really toss because what can you do with 30+ year old textbooks?) but I couldn’t find it. I was bummed because she seldom asks me for books I’ve recommended.

So is this worth the watch?

I would say so, especially if you've enjoyed his books. It's slow, somewhat melancholy, with a little uplift at the end. Some crazy stories...riding the beamer cycle from SF to the Grand Canyon non-stop, solo to see the sunrise was pretty wild.
